What exactly are herbal tinctures and what is the process of making them?
Herbal tinctures are concentrated liquid extracts made from herbs, typically using alcohol as the solvent. The process involves soaking the herb in alcohol to extract active components. After several weeks, the liquid is strained and stored in a dark bottle to preserve potency. Tinctures offer an easy dosage and long shelf life.
How do I properly use herbal tinctures and what is the recommended dosage?
Tinctures are taken orally, often under the tongue for fast absorption or mixed with water or juice. Dosage varies, typically 1-3 millilitres, 1-3 times daily. Always follow label instructions or consult a healthcare provider.
What precautions should I take when using herbal tinctures, and are there any potential side effects?
Consult a healthcare provider before using tinctures, especially if pregnant, nursing, or on medication. Potential side effects include digestive upset or allergic reactions. Start with a small dose to test reactions.
Are there different strengths of herbal tinctures?
Strength varies by herb-to-solvent ratios, commonly 1:5 or 1:2, with lower ratios being more concentrated. Check the label for ratios and consult a healthcare provider for appropriate strength and dosage.
